Through the free-to-download cookbook the Beat Diabetes initiative aims to provide an appealing selection of dishes for families to cook this summer. The cookbook provides suggestions to recreate well-loved local and international recipes prepared utilizing healthy ingredients and alternatives.

The recipes vary from conventional Middle Eastern deals with such as Mahashi Khodra and Tabat Tamir repurposed in a modern design by culinary duo and raw food supporters Nabih and Ghalia of Nabz & G to international specials such as Fish en Papillote and Vegan Quinoa Chili developed by Le Cordon Bleu trained Chef Nadia Parekh of Mlange Dubai.
